Working on the Cherokee
I'm working on a 2000 Cherokee interior. Trying to find compatible years to pull parts from that will fit without alot of trouble. Seats, carpet, headliner if in good shape. If not, how hard it is to redo the headliner myself? Any suggestions will help alot. I luv this forum😉

The headliner is not all that hard...if everything goes right.
The biggest problem i had was just about every dam one of those window trim clips snapped off the trim. Those broken off clips turned an easy 1 day project into a PITA 2 day project.
Make sure you have a hot glue glue gun handy with plenty of glue sticks just in case your clips snap off. If i had to do it all over again, i'd try using one of those plastic trim removal tools instead of strong arming the dam trims pieces off.
Maybe you'll have better luck than me.
Scrape off or wire brush off the old glue from the bottom of the head board.
And make sure the adhesive you use is meant for auto headliners.
There's a ton of Utube videos out there on how to do it.
